Obama camp calls Romney 'dishonest' in Jeep 'lie' ad (Updated)

President Obama's campaign is out with an Ohio ad aimed at countering the spot Mitt Romney started airing in which he alludes to a claim about Jeeps being made in China.

This spot underscores the "let Detroit go bankrupt" op-ed and pushes back on Romney's claim on the trail, based on a partial read of a Bloomberg News story, that Chrysler is exporting jobs manufacturing Jeeps to China.

It's true the company is thinking of production in China, but not shipping existing jobs overseas.

The spot calls him "dishonest," and says, "Now, after Romney’s false claim of Jeep outsourcing to China, Chrysler itself has refuted Romney’s lie."

We've reached that phase of the race where the ads are more intense, and the auto bailout is a key reason why Obama's team feels good about Ohio.
